Early Derby Day scratches (none in the Run for the Roses)

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Happy Derby Day! Churchill Downs is very sloppy right now. There were heavy thunderstorms through the night and it was pouring at 7 a.m. Now, there is just steady light-moderate showers falling.

The track was harrowed, rolled and scraped Friday night before it was sealed.

It’s very cloudy but the permament lights here, which were installed last year, are not on.

Here are the scrathces for the 13-race card (races three and five have been taken off the grass).
